Riding your bike is perfect exercise for your heart and a wonderful way to tone your lower body. It's also great for the environment, because it doesn't require any gas or electricity to get it going. If you live in a place where Winter means cold, ice, and snow, I'm sure you've put your bike away till the Spring, but you can still get the benefits of riding your bike without having to go outside.

Now that it's chilly out, and the roads are covered with snow and ice, you're not about to get on your bike and go for a ride.
Don't go out and spend tons of money on a stationary bike - you can transform your favorite bike into a cycle trainer.

No matter what your reasons for having to stay inside are (the weather, that newborn baby you just had, the episode of Oprah you just can't miss...) you can still get in a biking workout, even if you don't own a stationary bike. No, I'm not telling you to bike around your house...

After watching on the green tips and electricity free exercise this week on The Biggest Loser, I got to thinking (always a dangerous activity). Why don't we generate electricity from our exercise and make that pedal power turn into actual power?
Well, somebody asked that same question and created a answer.
